Description:
Sydney, Ultimo / Braddon, ACT: Halstead Press and Gorman House / City of Sydney, 2008. 2nd ed.. Paperback large wide octavo, very good condition, maps, black & white text-photos, adverts, bottom corner front cover little creased, minor edgewear. 144 pp. Shirley Fitzgerald relates how the story begins in convict times when William Chippendale shot a man for stealing his potato crop. This fertile and well watered area was coveted by industrialists who manufactured Sydney's sugar, beer and gin. Pollution, planning disasters, illegal subdivisions, substandard buildings, and floods poured filth into the unsewered slums, all contributing to degrade Chippendale throughout the 19th century. Chippendale today, cut off by busy thoroughfares between Central Station and Sydney University, attracts residents to quiet but cluttered streets because of its closeness to the city centre and educational institutions. Second edition.
